'''Can't Break ...'s Stride''' is a [[fad]] with [[GIF]]s of running people, accompanied by Matthew Wilder's ''Break My Stride'' (available on Volume 10 of the [[YTMND Soundtrack]]). The {{y|mystride|first one}} was made by [[syncan]] at February 26th, 2006. Sometimes, the GIF involves some obstacle that the character easily traverses, implying that the obstacle "couldn't break his stride". The [[Hobo-Cruise]] fad spawned out of this as "{{y|hobocruise|Can't Break the Eyeballs' Stride!}}". For sites that may depict rave culture or "super-fast"/"flashy" strides, a club version of Blue Lagoon's take may be used ({{ytmnd|neokeepskicking|Can't Break Neo's Stride}}).

The '''Can't Break My Stride''' [[fad]] is composted of an animated GIF of people moving quickly, typically running, accompanied by Matthew Wilder's ''Break My Stride'' (available on the [[YTMND Soundtrack]].

On May 27, 2006, the first "trap" stride site was created by the user NovaDaveX called "{{y|scott|Can't Break Scotty's stide}}" which showed the Star Trek character appearing to walk before banging into a low bar and falling.  The music then stops after the bang.  Since this site, there have been many other trap sites.

This type of YTMND usually has the character in question walking or running along, easily overcoming a specific type of obstacle or inconvenience. The most popular example of this YTMND is {{ytmnduser|syncan}}'s {{y|mystride|Can't Break My Stride}} from the series ''My Name Is Earl''.

The antithesis of these YTMNDs is the "trip stride" variety.  These usually involve a character, again, running or walking, but are distracted by something and end up tripping over the a specific item they should normally be able to avoid.  At the moment of impact, the music is interrupted, and silence typically follows the remainder of the YTMND.  The best example of this YTMND is {{y|scott|Can't Break Scotty's stide}} by {{ytmnduser|NovaDaveX}}.
